REMARKING upon railroads and
migration" the New York Tribune
notices the fact that more than half Of
the entire mileage of the season has
been made In the tier Of states and ter.
tories from Texas north, and includ.
ing Dakota, and this IL where the
principal tend Of migration and settle.
ment has been going on this season.
More than three.fourths of all the rail-
road construction this year has been
west Of the Mississippi river. Only
twenty-seven miles IN all the New
England States and only III in the
Middle States. The figures used by
the Tribune were those collected by
the Railway Age for the first eight
months of the year and their incom.
pletenesa il shown in the fact that
only 2T3 miles are credited to Mon
tsns. Our completed mileage for the
wear will he twice that. The purpose
nj the Tribune vas TO show merely
that the growth was a bealthv one, to
accommodate actual settlement whore
that was going on most indu.triouslv.
There has been no OVERRIDING Of the
business. no fierce competition, no
wasteful paralleling. Perhaps there
has been something more of the latter
in Montana than in all the rest of the
country together, hut We have more 10

swell II to more than a million and n
half. and would make u population

The Gait of Criminals.

A curious study has been made by DIR.
Peracchia Of the difference between Grim.
inals and law abiding citizens, as exhib-
tied by their walk. The author first
made a number of observations to deter
mine the conditions of normal progress.
sion. and found that in good people the
right pace is longer than the left, the
lateral separation of the right foot from
the median line is less than that of the
left, and the angle of deviation Of the
axis OF the foot from a straight line is
greater on the right side than on the left.
But this is not all. DIR. Peracchia has
not only shown us how we may distin-
guish criminals in general, but has laid
the beginnings of the differential dag
nosis between various sorts Of evil doors.
The following are the distinguishing
characteristics which his observations
have enabled him TO formulate:
1. Thieves. In those who are predis.
posed to appropriate the property of
others there is a pronounced widening of
the base of support together with a very
long step.
2. AsSaSsins.-In those who have muir
der in their hearts the base Of support is
not as wide as il is in thieves, since the
angle formed by the axis of the foot with
the median line is less obtuse. but the
sinistrality betrayed by their foot prints
Is very marked.
These discoveries are Of a very inter.
esting character, and if the criminal could
be induced TO walk before the honest
man, instead Of following him as he
usually does, they might also he put to a
practical use, for then good citizens could
diagnose the rogue by his tracks, and
might thus I've enabled to escape robbery,
or assassination, as the case might be-
